WR850

3-65

Field Description

Network Key

Rotation

Interval:

(ADVANCED)

With WPA encryption methods, the WR850 can issue clients new

encryption keys for multicast and broadcast packets on periodic

basis. This field sets that periodic interval in seconds. Leave this

field blank, or set the value to zero, to disable this periodic update.

NOTE: Network Key Rotation Interval is greyed out and unchangeable

unless WPA, WPA2, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK is Enabled.

FACTORY DEFAULT:

86400

WEP

Encryption:

(ADVANCED)

Enables Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption.

Selecting

Enabled engages WEP.

Selecting

Disabled disengages WEP.

NOTE: WEP Encryption requires the entry of at least one WEP

Network Key (below).

FACTORY DEFAULT:

Disabled

WEP Network

Keys 1-4:

(ADVANCED)

Sets up to four specific encryption keys which be used with WEP

encryption. You can enter 64-bit keys or 128-bit keys:

64-bit keys must be made up of either 5 case-sensitive ASCII

characters or 10 hexadecimal digits (0-9, A-F).

128-bit keys must be made up of either 13 case-sensitive

ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal digits (0-9, A-F).

NOTES:

1) You can only enter WEP Network Keys if WEP Encryption

(above) is Enabled.

2) Do not enter simple patters of numbers (e.g., all zeroes) as

WEP Network Keys. These keys would not be secure.

3) WEP Network Keys need not be entered if 802.1X

Authentication (above) is Enabled, since the RADIUS server
will dynamically generate keys.

4) If

WEP Encryption and WPA Encryption (above) are

concurrently Enabled, Network Key slots 1 and 4 are reserved
for WPA functions and you will only be able to enter WEP
Network Keys into slots 2 and 3.

FACTORY DEFAULT:

(blank)

Current WEP

Network Key

Index:

(ADVANCED)

Sets which WEP Network Key (above) will be used for encryption.

Select from

1 to 4.

NOTE: If WEP Encryption and WPA Encryption (above) are

concurrently Enabled, Network Key slots 1 and 4 are reserved for
WPA functions and the Current WEP Network Key Index will
only be able to select between 2 and 3.

FACTORY DEFAULT:
